Out Back


Topographically, our house is in a bowl compared to the countryside all around, so it's been trying to provide a good image of the area where we live now.  This is the country behind our house in Houck, Haiti.  Along with an intense desire to climb that mountain, God has put an amazing itch for farming into me...I can only assume because I now live in a heavy farming community.  We've got hundreds of stalks of corn now rising.  God brings just the right amount of rain.  All around us there are fields and farmers working the ground.  A toddler barely old enough to speak walked up to one of my little watermelon sprouts the other day, pointed at it and said, "Oh!  Melon!"
